Enabling Remote Access

4.1 Access enabled by Local Users
Remote access can be enabled in two ways:
• via */# procedures (see Page 5.19)
• via the AIMS Configuration Manager at the Attendant authorization level
It can be revoked again automatically or manually.
Both enabling procedures have equal authorization status. This means that
remote access can be enabled using, for example, an */# procedure and then
barred again using the "Remote maintenance" setting in the menu of the Attend-
ant authorization level.
When remote maintenance is activated, the event message "Remote Mainte-
nance Enabled" is sent to the local printer and to all the terminals registered in
message group 8 (Ascotel 2025 / 2045) and 16 (Ascotel 2065).
Remote access can be enabled or barred using the */# procedures both from the
idle state and the talk state, e.g. after an enquiry.
The authorization to activate / deactivate remote access using */# procedures can
be allocated in the subscriber configuration.
When the system is initialized, the authorizations of all subscribers are restricted.
Note:
It is advisable not to keep the remote access authorization permanently
activated (signalled by the active status of the LED on a function key con-
figured for remote maintenance on an Office terminal or on the menu
of the Attendant authorization level). This ensures that the PBX cannot
be manipulated from a remote location by unauthorized persons.
